It can be done, I imagine. However, you'll need a lathe to make up some spacers.
Might want to check you can get a 520 sprocket that fits. If not, that could be problematic.
CBR 250 wheels (MC18 & MC22) fit on pretty easily. I've got a set of MC18 wheels on mine.
Another thing is the front disk. You'll either have to make up an adapter plate to fit the KTM disks, or there may be 320mm disks available for a ZXR. But that is pretty unlikely.

Here's a pretty handy website. (http://motard-supermoto-wheels.sportsontheweb.net/ktm-husaberg-supermoto-motard.htm) If you're willing to use CBR wheels, that is.

I'll get you a picture tomorrow, considering it's a little rainy and she's a bit of a handful in the wet :headbang:.

I don't have any other wheels to replace them with... What a shame it doesn't hover, huh

Edit:

Just had a quick geeze on Trademe, there's one of each from an MC22. Front (http://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/motorbikes/parts-for-sale/wheels/auction-631770962.htm) and rear (http://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/motorbikes/parts-for-sale/wheels/auction-630835274.htm). Hope that helps
